Dental - November 2006

I get these bumps on the inside of my mouth. It forms on the inside of my top lip on the side and is very painful. It goes away on it's own but in time it comes back and it's very annoying. It's a little red. Is there a name for this and is there something I can use to make it go away for good? Please, I need help to resolve this issue. Thanks.

The dentist was highly recommended here by someone. However, my experience was just opposite and I had to leave the place after paying $175 just for being checked in the name of Complete Examination, which, I think, was not necessasy. When I made the appontment I was told that it will cost me only $65.

2 days ago I got I think the 2nd biscuspids (upper & lower on right side) pulled for braces. I dont know if they were the 2nd bicuspids, bu they were the teeth right next to my molars. They did the left side 2 weeks ago. When they did the left side it didnt give me much pain afterwards. But the right side is! I dont think it is dry socket because it ahs been hurting ever since I was no longer numb! Should I have my mom call the dentist tomorrow? The pain really is bad and nothing helps (i tried ibuprofen & tylenol). Should I have my mom call the dentist and ask? Or is this normal for one side to be a lot more sore than another?

I’m wondering if it’s normal to still be having some moderate discomfort 48 hours following dental surgery. I had a upper molar, an eye tooth, and a front tooth extracted the afternoon of the 21st which required some suturing. I did make it to work yesterday but was in quite a bit of discomfort all day. Awoke this morning in a lot of pain and just didn’t feel up to going out and attempting some vehicle repairs until later this afternoon. Now, I just feel generally not well but the pain seems to be getting better. Have been taking medications as prescribed , soft food etc.

Being Thanksgiving day it’s a bit hard to reach the dentist over something that’s probably nothing. My partner who knows a lot about dentistry is surprised that I’m still feeling discomfort. Has anyone had a similar situation?

my tooth is really driving me crazy. I had it looked at by a dentist and he saw no decay, but sent me for xrays. I have thickening of the tissue surrounding my molar. They said it could be from clenching or grinding, but if I do either it has to be during my sleep as I dont know about it, but my question is...why would biting, chewing on it or eating sugar or cold cause it pain? Does anyone know?

Is there any alternative to Metronidazole? I have problems with some penicillin's and have been prescribed this for an abscess in my gum. I have had Metronidazole before, and felt dreadful- dizzy, couldn't get up, sick, numbness, which may or may not have been migraine triggered by this. I have started the course, but a day and a half into it, I am getting the same symptoms as before. I suspect the Metronidazole, but dentist says to put up with it. It is very difficult to do that. Any suggestions?

I'm not talking about hollywood type white teeth which you could spot from a mile away. But just generally white teeth. Whats the best way to naturally do it? I don't want to get any professional treatments, just want to know if there are any fruits I should eat (I've heard apples are good to whiten teeth) and how much I should brush my teeth, stuff like that.
